Tracey Thorn - Late In The Afternoon lyrics

rate me

Late in the afternoon, October

Lights be coming on soon

Late in the afternoon, a little older

Be turning the clocks back soon

But you can't turn the clocks back, can you?

I'm not a novelty

You know every inch of me

Please don't begin to doubt me

Forget what you love about me

Look out your high window, November

A carpet of leaves below

You never saw through me, remember

And it wouldn't take that much

For something to kick away this crutch

I'm not a mystery

You know everything about me

I stand here every night

In fluorescent bathroom light

Every blemish, every scar

You know how they got there

And where they are

So don't get bored anytime soon

'Cause it's late

It's late in the afternoon
